Hi Folks,

I have a T8 gearbox in bits for sale. I went through Alan Brown’s collection and it is around 95% complete. All the castings and shafts are there and any missing bits can be found or bought from the club spares.

It needs a new third gear cluster and selector fork and perhaps this is an ideal candidate to go to Julian for conversion to a straight cut box.

Bearing in mind what I have to pay for spares, it ain’t going to be cheap and of course I am always up for swaps. My contact details are in the Club members list.

Cheers M34

Thank you Colin, how much molyslip is recommended for a T8 gearbox?

As it happens I have a pristine G9 gearbox, all refurbished and ready to go, plus a used G10 V12 centre change on my Lagonda shelf now surplus to requirements, looking for new homes at some stage.

Hi Stephen

I put a complete pack into the box. Lovely slippery stuff available from RDG tools – https://www.rdgtools.co.uk/acatalog/Molyslip-Molyslip-2001G-Axel—Gear-oil—Metal-Treatment–8842.html

As recommended I also put two packs of the engine treatment into the M45 engine https://www.rdgtools.co.uk/acatalog/Molyslip-Molyslip-2001E–Engine-Oil-Supplement–2001e.html

Sounds lovely.
